Palm Pre: Arrived iPhone-Killer?

Palm is one of those companies that already there were lost the sign to him. On the one hand, they used a old fashioned but quite effective and quick OS (like PalmOS) and on the other, Windows Mobile on a par left that it of any other Smartphone with the operating system of Microsoft. All the new features came by the side from the design, better camera, major connectivity…. Yes, things that all the companies have, nothing new until the presentation that realised in ESC 2009.

Palm presented/displayed its Palm Pre, smartphone with touch screen, camera of 3 mp with flash and qwerty keyboard. The best thing? His webOS, an operating system based on Linux and that Palm decided to write from zero (Nokia would have to do the same with the N97 and the Symbian) to adapt it to the gestures multitouch. Browser sample the sites com are, and the thanked for users.

The equipment allows the possibility of realising manifolds tasks with an interface very clear, simple and easy of using. The design of generally is exquisite, reason why I do not have doubts that he will be very attractive for the consumers.

According to the technology sites that could use it, webOS is around Google Android and iPhone OS, which demonstrates the great work that realised the engineers and programmers of Palm.

Just within 6 months we will see the first PRE in the street, but this year the “noise” came from a company almost-died like Palm (after the presentation, the actions raised a 30% almost) and is well that thus it is. With the competition, the beneficiaries will be the users with more options to enjoy.
